In decades past, researchers and scientists have been constrained by an optical resolution limit—defined over 140 years ago—that established the maximum resolution of an optical system of 200 nm in ...

Researchers at the University of California are working on a technology that is able to enhance the resolution of a standard light microscope, allowing it to directly view finer structures and details ...

When Ali Shaib was doing his master’s degree at the Lebanese University in Beirut, he spent several weeks on a waiting list and visited a different campus to take a few images on a costly microscope, ...

A light-powered microscope has a resolution limit of around 200 nanometers—which makes observing specimens smaller or closer together than that all but impossible. Engineers at the University of ...

When trying to measure molecular structures with nanometer precision, every bit of noise shows up in the data: someone walking past the microscope, tiny vibrations in the building and even the traffic ...
